Overture Life Launches European Preorder Waitlist for DaVitri, the World’s First Microfluidics-Based Automated Vitrification Platform17.9.2025 08:00:00 EEST | Press release
Overture Life, the innovator modernizing IVF to optimize reproductive freedom, today announced the launch of its European preorder waitlist for DaVitri, the world’s first automated vitrification platform. The waitlist ensures in vitro fertilization (IVF) facilities will be among the first in Europe to harness DaVitri to reduce manual workloads for their embryologists while eliminating operator variability, thereby providing patients with faster, more consistent procedures. As infertility rates spike worldwide, interest in egg freezing continues to rise while the infrastructure to support it lags behind. Egg freezing requires vitrification, typically a time-intensive, manual process vulnerable to human error that can only be performed by extensively trained embryologists. This has resulted in variability in egg and embryo survival rates that directly impact IVF success, as well as significant access issues caused by the throughput bottleneck. DaVitri automates egg vitrification, deliver
